[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 780645, member: 20605"] Please don't confuse hard men with thugs. The two aren't the same. I admire hard-b'stard rugby players who are tough and uncompromising without resorting to dirty/filthy tactics. Players such as Jerome Kaino, Buck Shelford, Brian Moore & Sebastian Chabal are true hard men of rugby. However, I have zero admiration for players who eye-gouge, headbutt and bag-snatch opponents. Players like Richard Loe, Butch James, Danny Grewcock and Bakkies Botha are not hard men they are cowards... wannbe hard men who do not have the skills to use their obvious physical attributes to intimidate without also being dirty b'stards. Hard to go past Buck Shelford playing on with a stitched up torn scrotum. [/QUOTE]
